Had a guy come into the shop once who hooked up the control valve wrong and when he started it the steering wheel turned by itself with tremendous force and broke his arm. Once everything is tested, and working properly, you can go back to reaching through the spokes.
OK update #1 On Friday I began installation of the P/S. Interesting was that NO INSTRUCTIONS came with the set up. Thank gawd for the assembly manual. Got the alt bracket and P/S brackets installed before leaving for a trip to Tallahassee for an FSU game on Saturday (gotta do a little partying)

Will get back to it with 98 softtail's help and finish up on Monday. Not a bad install so far. and you're right Rob blood and oil equal horsepower
